" You Can’t Hurt Me Anymore "

" You Can’t Hurt Me Anymore "

(Lyrics By Gerald Logan)

( Verse 1 )

The nights were cold, the silence loud,

I lost myself in the shame I allowed.

Your whispers hurted they cut to the bone,

But I’ve found the courage to stand on my own.

( Chorus )

You can’t hurt me anymore,

I’ve nailed shut that broken door.

The tears ran dry, the chains are gone,

I found my voice, I found my song.

Your scent still lingers, but I won’t fall,

I’m stronger now, I’ve faced it all.

No… you can’t hurt me anymore.

( Verse 2 )

I wore the weight of every lie,

Carried your burden ‘til my soul ran dry.

But ashes give way to a brighter flame,

I’m not your prisoner, I’ve reclaimed my name.

( Chorus )

You can’t hurt me anymore,

I’ve nailed shut that broken door.

The tears ran dry, the chains are gone,

I found my voice, I found my song.

Your scent still lingers, but I won’t fall,

I’m stronger now, I’ve faced it all.

No… you can’t hurt me anymore.

( Bridge )

Let the steel guitar cry where my heart once bled,

Let the piano play the words I never said.

I’ve been broken, but I’m not the same,

I rose from the ashes, I buried your name.

( Final Chorus )

You can’t hurt me anymore,

I’ve nailed shut that broken door.

The tears ran dry, the chains are gone,

I found my voice, I found my song.

Your scent still lingers, but I stand tall,

I’ve risen higher than your fall.

No… you can’t hurt me anymore.

( Outro )

No, you can’t hurt me…

Can’t hurt me…

Anymore.
